The App Store is back in business. After the holiday shut down, there are plenty of app updates queued up and ready for you, fixing bugs and glitches, bringing new features, and there are some price cuts we thought you should know about. So if you got gaming on the brain and some App Store credit to spend, here we go.

It's a 99 cent bonanza this week. Yes, that's the going price for lots of great apps that normally fetch quite a bit more than that. We've got an app or two that go a little over, but plenty that go under too, so if you're looking to save some money, you've come to the right place.

We've got an extra-large edition of Price Drop for you this week due to the holiday sales that are going on. So if the thought of three whole days with no work and your extended family up in your business night and day makes you quake with fear, here's a few sweet deals to keep you distracted, get your life in order, and to actually make some fun things in the real world. Get tapping!
